Easy White Pizza Recipe

Kian Mendoza

Report

This is the easiest white pizza recipe! Puff pastry gives it a super flaky, delicious crust and it's so simple. Garlicky, cheesy and topped with sliced tomatoes, this is so delish to throw together after a busy day.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the sheet of puff pastry on top. Poke it all over with a fork (this prevents big bubbles!)
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over low heat. Stir in the garlic cloves and a pinch of crushed red pepper. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the garlic is sizzling. Let it cool slightly.
While it’s cooling, slice the tomatoes. Place the slices on a paper towel and sprinkle all over with salt. Let sit for 10 minutes, then pat dry with a paper towel.
Brush the puff pastry all over with the garlic oil. Sprinkle all over with the cheese, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Top with the tomato slices. Sprinkle on some pepper and the dried basil. Drizzle a bit more garlic oil on (just a bit!) and sprinkle with more parmesan.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden and puffed and cheesy! Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with parmesan, slice and serve!
